Brilliant, layered guy. Leon Balogun’s point about being distant from Nigerian culture as a German-born player is quite understandable. It’s far easier for the UK-born guys to settle into the squad, in comparison with others who probably grew up in environments that didn’t have as many Nigerians. His point...

Jon Rahm on the LIV format: “Yeah, obviously there’s been a bit of a change. There was a lot more about LIV Golf that was attractive to me, right. Yeah, maybe the format was a set back in the past, but at the same time there’s a lot of positives to it as well. And one of the things that a lot of players kept mentioning is you don’t have a wave weather difference, where you can simply get unlucky and you’re out of contention for that tournament. It’s part of the game, I get it, but it’s something you don’t have to deal with anymore. So that part is a very nice aspect. The team is what really made it for me. Being able to be part of a team, represent a team, play for my teammates, with my teammates and against my teammates, is something that to me that has always been very, very special. When you get a victory to share, it’s always better to have a team to share it with. So it’s what was the most attractive part and when we started discussions it gets to a point where even though I’m ambitious, I’m not greedy. So there’s a give and take and the format is something that I can easily overlook, and I’m pretty sure I can learn to enjoy it, I’ll just have to get used to it, but I’m pretty sure I’ll learn to enjoy it. To be honest, the more I started thinking about it, the more I started thinking about my college days that were 3 day tournaments, 54 holes, and everybody warmed up together for the most part. So it shouldn’t be an environment I’m unfamiliar with.” This is from the LIV podcast called “Fairway to Heaven”. Full link:

Joe DeCamara on why he felt “tremendous pride” to be an Eagles fan this week in particular: "I am really struck with tremendous pride this week about the Eagles winning the Super Bowl. The last couple of days in particular have really hit me on this front. "First off, we had Saquon Barkley and Brandon Graham throwing out the first pitch at the Phillies walking out with the Lombardi Trophy. Phenomenal. "I don't want to lose the feeling of that championship and what has gone on this week...We've got a team as we start moving to the draft with the 32nd pick. On one hand I don't like it, on the other hand I freakin' love it! What it represents is my team just won the Super Bowl. "Let me give you another one. Now I know a lot of people don't like the causality of this at all. The Eagles are being attacked by the league with the tush push. One one hand it's despicable because of the methodology teams are using. On the other hand it speaks to the greatness the Eagles have established and the jealousy, the jealousy, that exists around the NFL for our football team. Like they are jealous of the Eagles so there is something kind of cool about that. "Jeffrey Lurie earned the opportunity to walk into a meeting with the owners and he didn't have to say nothing...Bottom line is when Jeffrey Lurie walked into that room eyes were on him because his organization is the best in pro football. "Vic Fangio was at the Phillies game yesterday. Vic Fangio was talking about growing up as a Philadelphia sports fan going to the Vet. He was talking about Connie Mack stadium yesterday. "I am really struck this week by a lot of things that for me swell me with pride...That hits me this week, in particular."

Tom Brady reveals the overlooked reason practice squad players never succeed in the NFL It’s not a lack of talent. Brady watched it happen for 20 years. The pattern was undeniable. As soon as a practice squad player got promoted and had to perform under real pressure, they crumbled. It took years for Brady to understand why. “There’s 53 guys on the active roster and there’s now 15 guys on the practice squad. So there’s 68 players. But those practice squad players are important because if anybody on the active roster gets hurt, they can get elevated to the squad.” “These scout team receivers would come in and practice with the scout team and they do really well. And I’d be watching. I’m like, ‘Man, we got to get that guy. Let’s get him up on offense. He’s making a lot of plays.’” “Then all of a sudden, we’re like, ‘Hey man, you’re doing really well. You got to come over here and deal with the pressure of succeeding now that you have expectation.’” “And these guys are like, they weren’t prepared for it. So whatever we saw in practice against where there was not a lot of pressure, now when they’re put in a situation where there’s an expectation for performance, they’ve never had to personally deal with that and then they fail.” “And then what I realized was a lot of guys on those practice squads, they don’t want to be elevated to the roster.” “They’re very happy living this life where they could tell their family and friends, which I have no problem with that. But the reality is a lot of guys don’t want the pressure of dealing with top.” Twenty years in the league and seven Super Bowl rings later, Brady learned that talent wasn’t the hardest thing to find. It was people who actually wanted the pressure that comes with being great.
